Seven Bearcats Make Final Edition of Daniel Jeremiah's Big Board

All seven are projected to be picked earlier that Round Five.

CINCINNATI — NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah unveiled his final big board of the 2022 NFL Draft season, and seven Bearcats made the cut starting with Sauce Gardner at No. 2.

"Gardner is a tall, long cornerback with elite movement skills and toughness," Jeremiah wrote. "In press coverage, he uses his length to successfully re-route wideouts. He has abnormal fluidity for such a huge cornerback (6-foot-3, 190 pounds). He can completely open his hips to mirror and match underneath. He’s rarely out of position, but if it happens, he has an incredible burst to recover. From off coverage, he is fluid and explodes out of his plant and drive. He has natural ball skills; he can find it and play it. His overall awareness is magnificent. He is very willing as a run defender and blitzer. Although he'll miss an occasional tackle, the aggressiveness and want-to are easy to identify. Overall, Gardner has a unique skill set for his size, and I see similarities to four-time Pro Bowler Antonio Cromartie when he was coming out of Florida State."

The rest of the Bearcats in order: QB Desmond Ridder (No. 51), WR Alec Pierce (No. 75), CB Coby Bryant (No. 90), LB Darrian Beavers (No. 110), S Bryan Cook (No. 116), Edge Myjai Sanders (No. 135).

All those players are close to locks as top-150 picks in this weekend's draft. The two other possible draft picks are RB Jerome Ford (projected sixth-round) and DL Curtis Brooks (projected seventh-round or UDFA)
